MSNBC contributor: Republicans are 'going to cheat' to win 2022 midterm elections
Fox News
MSNBC contributor Jason Johnson claimed Monday that Republicans were optimistic about their chances to win the 2022 midterm elections because they intended to cheat.
"[A] key thing to understand why Republicans are optimists for next year, even if they're sort of waving themselves and wrapping themselves in a Trump burrito, is they’re going to cheat. They’re just going to make voting laws throughout the country that guarantee that they’re going to win," he added. "They just figure that they're going to pass legislation to make it harder for Democrats to vote … They just figure, if we can pass enough voter suppression, wrap ourselves in Trump, and intimidate the other side, we can win in 2022."
After a clip played of Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., saying he would not support Trump if he was the Republican nominee for president in 2024, Wallace asked Sykes why Cassidy's stance wasn't "knocking some sense" into other Republicans.
